More updates
New in PDF SDK 9.1 for Web and Desktop
Extended Platform Compatibility
This update introduces PDF printing capabilities for Linux operating systems. Also, the Java Library has been expanded to include the support for Linux ARM CPU architectures.
Built-in Storage Driver
We’ve introduced a built-in, customizable storage driver that facilitates data saving and retrieval. This empowers users to reuse annotation settings from their previous sessions.
PDF 2.0 Compatibility Annotation Editing and Multiply Blend Mode Annotation Rendering
Now, you can render and edit annotations using CA, ca, and BM dictionaries from PDF 2.0, expanding your annotation capabilities. We’ve also enhanced the rendering of annotations using the Multiply Blend Mode in the Appearance Stream, resulting in improved annotation visual outcomes.
Enhanced Signature Capabilities
Several new functions have been added to improve the process and capabilities of signatures. This includes support for setting signature appearance before signing, adding signatures, and sealing signatures with a shared signature dictionary.
New Objects-level Classes for Traversing the PDF Structure Tree
The PDFStructTree classes can be used by developers to programmatically access and manipulate the structure tree of a PDF document. By offering functions to get structure elements, this class can help developers navigate and retrieve information from the structure tree in a more efficient and flexible manner than manually parsing the PDF file.
Paging Seal Signature for Stamping
We’ve added support for paging seal signatures that can be used to add visual seals or stamps to specific pages of a PDF document, enabling actions like adding, updating, deleting, and signing stamps. Download our SDK here and take a look.
